Seeing off the babies of Olive Ridley Turtle to the Arabian Sea.

Mr Devadas Pulikkal, a native of Pallathamkulangara, took care of the turtle eggs which hatched early this morning. He was caring the eggs for more than a couple of months. According to him, the eggs need 50 days to hatch. In this batch, there were 74 babies sent to the Arabian Sea. These lovely beings are the babies of Olive Ridley Turtle (binominal/scientific name – Lepidochelys olivacea).
